I generated it with my mods in, and used a 5 x 8 to get the brook.  The underground river is two-level, ending in a bottomless pit.  By this I mean that the water falls 3 levels from a first section to a second section.  Then the second section falls into the pit after travelling about the same distance horizontally.

There is a GCS in the chasm.

There is plenty of flux but I could not locate any iron.

One aquifer is located on the same level as the rock roof of the circus.  Can you drown clowns?  You'd have to cut a channel to the correct spot, but it's only one level of channeling to open the roof.  My clowns appeared to be the perverted sorts.  Maybe you could even carve fortifications into the final wall and drop the water in that way.

Like the OP, I leave this site to more adventurous players, but it certainly is amazing terrain.

Based on my understanding of how fluid pressure can pass U-bends in DF, the output will rise to the level of the top pump at the end no matter how many dips the pipe makes in between.  So if you built enormously tall pump stacks in those steep peaks, and then just have the fluid make a U-turn and go back down again, then you'd have a pressurized plumbing system capable of pushing fluid up to any other Z level on the map.   With two peaks and the brook to the south, you could use one peak for magma and the other for water.  Or you could build a double pump stack in one mountain peak, with a central column of access stairs between the pumps.

Aha!  I found the staue that belongs over that magma pipe.

What Flux are you on about. None of which are on this map unless your mods adjusted it.
Where is the GCS I have been looking to no end for one, but once again none unless your Mods adjusted that...
There is TONS of IRON on the map. Once again. Mods might have changed that...

WHAT Mods are you using???

I genned this world, used a cut-down, 4X3 version of the embark for speed (just the magma and cave river.)

Proceeded to try to make a nice, pretty fort with all these circley shapes and things.

Dug upwards as far as I could, to get space for future dwarves.

Hit the cave river from underneath. With a stairway. Directly above my fort. Going to see whether it washes all my dorfs into the magma pipe. Might upload the map to the DFMA.

Other than that, excellent embark.

I just embarked here, and as autumn arrived I got the message that my carpenter could not make any beds, because he had no logs to work with.  "OK," I said, "I'll just go cut some trees down right over... where?"  I scanned the entire map, but could find no trees in any of the grassy areas.  Possible bug?

Update: I just re-checked, and there's not even any saplings growing.

Did you do a reveal and stuff on another Map.
I always had that problem whenever I revealed the map before hand then reverted back...

Check the chasm in the upper lefthand corner, about 13 levels up from the bottom.  Mine has a tunnelled-out section there which is larger than the others.  It had a cave spider there, until the antmen, cave swallowmen, rats, and gremlins killed it.

My location was large enough to include the brook.  You might find some marble down there.

I use the cat-mouth fix, plus the gentle farming mod with honey bees, cacao bushes, and reindeer moss added.  I also have an "all-economic stones section" in my smelter, which makes it possible for me to turn off usage of any type of stone.

I gen'ed the world, embarked, and checked some things out.  I then gen'ed it again for actual play.

Hmm...I wonder if I can replicate that site in Civilization Forge. The new rocks I added in will muck with things a bit, but hopefully I can get the basic shape.
